    tach signal 2002 Mercury 115 ELPT4S

    My son bought a pontoon with a 115 Mercury on it and the tach is inop. The previous owner swapped the 115 for some kind of a Yamaha 40 or 50 HP he couldn't remember. I have not seen the boat in person yet so I don't know if the tach signal is missing or set wrong. Can anyone tell me what wire...

    40 HP Nissan on a 24 foot pontoon info.

    I picked up a new to me 2000 24 foot pontoon with a 40 HP Nissan, the prop is pretty ate up and has no identifying marks on it. I would like to get a replacement prop since this one bogs the motor at 4500 rpm at WOT. The WOT spec for the motor is 5100 to 5700. Do any of you guy's have a similar...

    1995 75hp water in cylinder 3

    I'm looking for some info for my brothers boat motor. We have a 1995 75HP 3 cylinder 2 stroke SN: 0G177014. The #3 cylinder has water in it. I was thinking head gasket, but while searching for possible causes the armchair mechanics are throwing out things like a lower crank seal and exhaust...

    trolling motor prop?

    I have a MINN KOTA 27 lb thrust trolling motor Turbo 35T it calls for a 2061125 replacement prop. My question is do any of you guys know if another prop will mount to this motor to give it more top speed? I am not concerned with overloading because I only have it mounted to a light 16 foot...

    Project cheap poontoon

    Re: Project cheap poontoon I did search for a toon cleaner, but I could not find anything specifically to remove the rust. The cross bars are galvanized steel and rusted in a few spots running down onto the toons and the mounting hardware was standard bolts, no stainless at all on this boat...

    1978 Johnson 35hp

    Does anybody have a service manual PDF? I searched for hours and only could find the bait and switch sites. This is a new to me motor and I have never had an outboard, are these pretty dependable and worth putting some money in to get it working right? It has been sitting on the back of a boat...

    Project cheap poontoon

    I know the title is an oxymoron, I have never had a cheap boat, even the free one I got cost me plenty. I picked up a 1970 Aqua patio 20 foot aluminum pontoon with a 35 Johnson dirt cheap. At least that is what the title says, however the right rear toon has a HIN number for a Sylvan pontoon...

    I am heading out this weekend to do the Hwsiii boat prop test and I made a pretty sweet little Excell spread sheet to write all my data on. I was wondering if anyone else might like a copy? I have tried to post it up but it just dosent look as good as the one I made. The original has room for...
